Warriors aim for hat-trick

GLEN McMillan’s Wattles side is looking to a third successive victory when it takes on the Dalby Diehards tomorrow at Platz Oval.

But despite Wattles’ confidence after consecutive victories over Highfields and Warwick, Dalby will be anything but a pushover, after recent wins against Newtown and Gatton.

Aside from premiership points, both teams will be driven by the prize of the Rod Frahm Memorial Trophy for the first-grade side.

Former Clifton businessman, the late Rod Frahm, enjoyed close links with both clubs, the annual trophy named in his honour a significant goal of Wattles sides each season.

A lifetime Clifton local, Mr Frahm and his wife Janette are life members of Wattles.

The former player and coach who took the Warriors to a Madsen-Rasmussen Trophy success in 1998.

Rod and Janette Frahm have been wonderful workers supporting Wattles over many years, long-time club sponsors and admirable supporters, facts that will motivate all in the green and gold to see the trophy back at Platz Oval on Sunday.

Naturally talented under-18 back Anthony McIntosh had his first taste of A grade last week, and will run on against Dalby on the wing.

He is proving to be a point-scoring phenomenon for the Warriors with 140 points to his name after 10 rounds of TRL.

Classy utility player Ashley Evans returns against Dalby, after a three-week injury spell.
